Gotchawrenches first appeared in the ''[[VS. Wrecking Crew]]'' arcade game for the [[VS. System]] as nameless enemies, where they were among the only major enemy obstacles. They appear much as they do in the subsequent console game but do not actively hunt [[Mario]]. Red ones move slowly while purple ones, introduced in Phase 3, are quick. The two types are found together only in Phases 7 to 10. They will almost always use the nearest ladder they come across. Gotchawrenches will transit between the foreground and background screens through opened [[door (Wrecking Crew series)|door]]s in their path. A Gotchawrench on the opposite screen appears as a harmless silhouette.

Starting in Phase 11, red ones are replaced by unnamed hatchet enemies that behave the same. This enemy is entirely exclusive to ''VS. Wrecking Crew'', as it is not present in any later-released ''Wrecking Crew'' titles.
